Despite his ardor for Baths and claw foot bath tubs, Aaron Frank does not wear Bathing Apes. Now that we're several months in to the new year, those December resolutions are slipping and I'm again regularly making poor personal decisions. This time it wasn't answering my ex's belligerent 3 AM phone calls, but rather skipping Baths and Tobacco at the Echoplex a couple weeks ago. Luckily, the former will be holding down a residency spot at the Low End Theory next month, a testament to the Chatsworth native's rising profile within the local beat [...]

Tune into UtahFM every Saturday night 9-10:30 MDT to catch me spinning (digitally) the latest and greatest... You can listen to a replay of the show at your convenience for the next two weeks right here . UtahFM is looking for a few good men & women to host shows. If you think you are interesting and others think you are interesting and you have an interesting idea for a show, do something about it and contact me. This week I had to cut the show short so that I could jump over [...]
Baths : Hall Allez, pour ne pas trop vous laisser sur votre faim, un second titre signé Baths , extrait du premier LP Cerulean : Hall ( MP3 ). D'autres titres son en écoute sur Myspace .
Baths : Maximalist Baths , le projet fondé par Will Wiesenfeld, sortira prochainement son premier LP Cerulean . Une collection de 12 titres à la rythmique exacerbée et aux samples "maximalistes".

Its seems like more and more emails pile up in the ol' CoS mailbox everyday. Of course, while this is bad news for us (the work day just keeps getting longer and lonnnnggeer), it's good news for you. Said emails often include links and streams to the week's best new singles, remixes, and covers, and, because more emails means more links and stream, the length of our weekly Friday Mixtape also seems to growing beyond our wildest imagination. See, I told you it was good news... for you! Enjoy! (I'm going to now go and answer more emails). [...]
A few days ago we told you about 21 year old producer Baths , who was just signed to Anticon Records. Well, he has pushed out another track from his debut LP, Cerulean , called "Halls." Think flying lotus meets lo-fi. Cerulean will be releases June 22nd enjoY! Baths - Halls
It's always nice to see a fellow LA homie getting some love. Pitchfork has been digging Baths recently, and so has Anticon. Will Wiesenfeld's debut record under the Baths moniker is coming to us June 22nd, courtesy of Anticon. In anticipation, he recently released "Maximalist" as a free single. To go along with that, we [...]

Pitchfork posted a new Baths tune, so I guess we're in the clear with "Hall"! Dripping with falsetto and stuffed with tape looped compression, homie and soon-to-be Los Angeles celeb Will Wiesenfeld has pulled the sheet off a tune that carries the same trance of Geotic within the unpredictability and heavy beats of [Post-foetus] ; something about this one just draws me to "A. Dusk" for some reason, although the pieces are a few years apart maybe it's the inherent knack for a fit between lyrics and beat for the two. Along the lines of [...]
Will Wiesenfeld's ethereal falsetto juxtaposed against a subtle bass thumper and the random muted beats makes for a sweet experimental pop marriage. More like it: FREE MP3: Dosh - "Number 413 (Feat. Andrew Bird) Glasvegas + Spector cover + debut album FREE MP3: Ruby Isle remixes Bon Iver, more

With a forthcoming full length album on Anticon , LA beatmaker Baths gives us a flavour of his funk ladened hazy style with the tune "Maximalist". Baths - Maximalist

From Chatsworths, CA - Will Wiesenfeld ( Baths ), has a forthcoming full-length on Anticon . He was signed yesterday April, 1 2010. April fools?? lol - not quite. Check it. MP3: Baths - Aminals http://www.myspace.com/bathsmu sic
What to say about this week's Friday Mixtape... Let's see... Well, with the inclusion of acts like Roky Erickson, Tobacco, Dum Dum Girls, and Frog Eyes, it's pretty indie-heavy. Given how much scrolling you're about to do, there's a lot to listen to. Oh, and once you do listen, you're probably hear a lot that you'll end up putting on repeat. Yeah, this week's Mixtape is pretty awesome. But don't just take our word for it, hear for yourself below... NEW Singles: "Wulfstan" by Beak> [...]
Maximalist LA producer Baths held me up earlier this morning at musicpoint. I'm still a dash held, yet my arms in the air are now sorta swaying from side to side. A museum of sound; textures and layers softly banging on the eardrums offering it's attention. You've got mine! Baths has [...]
LA producer, Baths (Will Wiesenfeld), is the latest act to sign with Anticon . He has taken that lo-fi sound that seems to be prevalent these days and mixed it in with the electronic beat wizardry of such acts as Flying Lotus. Add a few vocal samples here and there and together they make a dreamy blend of ambient downtempo dance music that is perfect for your lazy Sunday, warm summer nights, or just lighting one up. enjoY!

Holy shit, it's happening. After years of knowing it was coming and gushing over his rich textures, lyrical play, imaginative and unprecedented melodies and so on, Will Wiesenfeld ( Baths , [Post-foetus] , Geotic , ex- Nephews ) has not only broken into the public realm on a global scale but has also signed to anticon. for the release of whatever he has in store for a Baths debut. "Maximalist" just popped up on Pitchfork, the last [Post-foetus] album is in distribution on the other side of the world, and LA is feeling a resurgence of a community [...]

Blitzen Trapper - "Heaven and Earth" Blitzen Trapper will return with their fifth studio album, Destroyer of the Void , on June 8th. "Heaven and Earth" is the first single to make its way around the web and it definitely has a calmer vibe than I expected. However I highly doubt that this album is going to be completely devoid of the southern-rock influenced jamming we're used to. Yes, I've been wrong many times before... [...]
